Simply squeeze sterile honey into the deep cavity of the wound. With a sterile "double wide coffee stir stick" (these wooden sticks are also called "tongue suppressors", (the kind the doctor uses to push down the tongue to check your throat for infection). Tongue suppressors are packaged in individual  sterile packages, with it, gently spread Active Manuka Honey along the the walls of the deep wound cavity, making sure that the honey touches everywhere inside the wound. Then apply plenty of layers of sterile gauze on top of wound, to help soak up access honey and body liquid.

If you are dealing with a deep puncture wound, such as a gun shot wound, draw some honey into a syringe, and without the needle (!), gently insert the honey into the deep cavity of the wound, cover with sterile gauze and keep in place with friendly skin tape, such as paper tape.

How to apply Active Manuka Honey to any type of wound?

Active Manuka Honey is applied to burns, wounds, ulcers, sores, surgical scars, decubitus sores (bed sores), diabetic leg and foot ulcers, amputation stump wounds and other MRSA and VRE staph infected wounds. Gently wash the wound with a saline solution. Apply Active Manuka Honey to a sterile gauze, similar like spreading honey onto a toast, not too much and not too little. Then apply the gauze with the honey attached to the wound. Apply 2-3 additional layers of gauze on top of the first gauze layer, in order to help soak up excess body fluid and honey. Secure gauze around the edges with skin friendly paper tape to keep the gauze in place.

Change the Active Manuka Honey Wound Dressing once every 24 hours in the evening. Again gently wash the wound with a saline solution and apply the next honey dressing, until the wound is completely healed.

If a wound has a mal odor, it is infected. Once you start applying Active Manuka Honey to a wound, you can expect the mal odor to subside within 5-10 days, depending on the size and depth of the wound, that is about how long it takes to help clear up the infection. Next you will notice that the wound will appear less and less deep. Then you should start to see healthy pink skin form around the edges of the wound and last you’ll notice the edges of the wound shrinking in size, until the wound is completely healed.

We recommend that you document the wound healing progress by taking good, sharp clear digital photos with good lighting. Take a photo about every 3-4 days or more, depending on how fast the wound is healing. When you submit the wound photos to us, and with your permission to publish the photos online at www.manukahoneyusa.com/CustomerTestimonies.htm, we will send you a reward including free shipping. By submitting your photo story to us, you will help other people by encouraging them to give this medicinal honey a try.
